Chapter 352 Preparation
"That's not invisible, it's so dangerous." My wife pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Yes," I interrupted quickly, "so we need to build a simple bamboo raft."
"What a joke," Momo said with a laugh. "The darkness is dark and the fire is very vigilant. We can't even find a piece of bamboo, so where can we build bamboo rafts."
Being tied up this time should have hit them a lot. I heard the frustration in their words and secretly called out terrible. I only remember to escape from the savage's control as soon as possible, but ignored the feelings of Momo and his wife. They should not be willing to believe me at the moment, so before telling them the plan, I should first awaken their original intentions.
I left for a long time, so I just gave Momo and his wife a few words and left.
When I came back, someone had woken up. They were curious about where I went. I lied and told them that I went to the bathroom. They didn't say anything after hearing it.
If this continues for a long time, it will definitely arouse others' suspicion. I can only speed up the progress and convince Momo and his wife, while trying to find ways to get some solid bamboo.
Soon, I found a place full of bamboo, but this place was heavily guarded. It is very likely that someone had tried to build a bamboo raft to escape. But no matter how difficult this method is, I have to persist.
It is definitely not feasible to cut bamboo according to the method of cutting bamboo late at night every day, and not to mention the tribe members, they have already thrown me into the sea before I cut it and completed it. Then there is only one way left, and steal some every time in the process of transporting bamboo. But stealing is not a simple task. Every time the bamboo is transported, two people are done together. It is very difficult to hide the bamboo in a place that no one can find when another person is not paying attention.
Moreover, the work is taking turns. If I want to speed up the progress, I can only take on more jobs to transport bamboo. Fortunately, this is a thankless job. When I heard that I was willing to take on this chore, many people came to find me and wanted to change it with me.
The best of both worlds is, why not do it?
You should not be anxious when you first do this job. It is like a process of gaining trust, so it is a process of gaining trust at the beginning. While I am carrying bamboo honestly, I pay attention to some hidden places.
Fortunately, I also discovered such a hidden place: overgrown weeds, and magically, there is a culvert under the weeds. There are dense spider webs in the culvert. It must have been a long time since no one has been involved in it. It seems that this place was specially designed for me to store bamboo. I was a little excited when I thought about it.
So several times I kept transporting bamboo honestly, when I came to the culvert near the culvert, I always left for the excuse of going to the toilet. Generally, another person would leave and go to the toilet. At this time, I quickly pulled out a bamboo and hid it in the culvert. This way, I didn't find it after several times.
At the same time, I would go to Momo and his wife every once in a while. Maybe they were moved by my sincerity, or maybe for some other reason, they finally decided to try to leave with me. I couldn't come to them every day, everything was unknown, so I told them to prepare as much food as possible. I didn't understand how long we would float on the bamboo raft. After finally running out, I finally starved to death on the bamboo raft. Isn't this a big joke?
"Have you heard that recently it is said that someone is stealing bamboo, and they are investigating it strictly," a foreigner who has a good relationship with me walked towards me with a plate of rice.
"Ah," I was shocked, and I looked calm on the surface.
"What's going on?" I felt that my reaction was not right, and I couldn't help but ask.
"It seems that the lessons from that year were not heavy enough," he lit a cigarette and did not answer my question. It seemed like he was trapped in a deep memory and muttered to himself: "I wanted to steal bamboo and build a bamboo raft to escape, but when I was done, I was almost about to leave, and I was discovered. It was a pity." After he said that, he sighed, as if he was really regretting a lost life. "Escape is a serious crime, so this man was cut off his life in public first, and the tribe members burned it with a fire."
I felt a pain in my body, as if my life was cut.
Seeing my body stiff, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's not you who was cut. Why do you look brave and die? You might have something to hide from us?"
I didn't dare to look at his eyes that had insight into everything, and he whispered in disappointment.
He glanced at me meaningfully, patted my shoulder, and said, "Take care."
Then he left with a cigarette. I was very confused. Although I was very in a hurry to transport bamboo every time, I did a good job in the aftermath. Logically speaking, this should not happen. Someone like me, wanted to leave the island by building bamboo rafts, but it turned out to be revealed.
Now is not the time to explore the reasons, but as far as the results are concerned, I can no longer steal bamboo. Every time I transported, there will be tribe members following us to monitor us. My bamboo is actually not much worse. After a while, they relaxed the control, and I should be able to leave. Thinking of this, I was very happy, as if I had seen the light that I had not seen for a long time.
I didn't continue to carry bamboo, so I could only go to Momo and my wife from time to time at night. Now they are no longer repulsive to me as they were at the beginning. I listened to them talking about their daily lives and finally had the opportunity to take a good look at them. Their daily life is only washing and sewing. Although they are tired, fortunately they won't be injured.
"When can we leave?" Momo asked.
"Be good, wait a little longer." I reached out and wiped Momo's head.
After a few days, the tribe members saw nothing happened again. They thought that the person who was about to escape had given up, so they stopped caring about us. I know that the opportunity has come.
I used the same method to transport bamboo for two days in a row, and I made all the preparations.
Momo and his wife have been waiting for me. Tonight, we just need to carry the bamboo raft to the beach to leave.
That's fine, embrace the freedom we want and the air outside again.
Time flies so fast, and it is night in a blink of an eye. For us, it is a battle of desperation. If we fail, we will be successful.
I met with Momo and his wife late at night.
